This is one of three adjacent homes in a low-income neighborhood of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, that might be called "art houses" for their exuberant drawings
This one includes a handmade sign identifying itself as a Juneteenth Museum — a reference to the June 19th holiday (also called Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, and Liberation Day) marking the final emancipation of those still enslaved following the U.S. Civil War of the 1860s. On June 19, 1865 — two months after the Southern Confederacy's surrender — U.S. Maj. Gorden Granger landed in Galveston, Texas and declared that any and all remaining slaves were now free
